Chapter 75 Rememberance
Sheryl’s words surprised Lottie. She didn’t expect Sheryl was so fond of Shane to such an extent. His position was even on par with her biological father.
Previously, she was worried about how to break the news to Sheryl. Now, it seemed she had overthought the matter.
“Lottie, you have to seriously consider what I said before.”
Charlotte turned around and looked at Anne in confusion. “What did you say?”
“That Sheryl and Shane…” Anne glanced at Sheryl and shot her a knowing look.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Charlotte understood what she meant in an instant. Her eyes also landed on Sheryl as she nodded her head in agreement with Anne’s suggestion.
When Shane returns, she will steal a strand of his hair to undergo a parental DNA test with Sheryl.
As the saying goes, it’s better to leave no stone unturned.
After spending some time together, Anne left with Sheryl.
Charlotte laid on the bed with her eyes closed. Initially, she wanted to return home with Anne. She felt as if her body had fully recovered.
However, the doctor said he needed to observe her conditions for one more day. She would be allowed to leave when he was sure she was fine.
Just as Charlotte was about to fall asleep…
A few uninvited guests entered her ward.
It was Elaine and Timothy with their son, Alistair.
Charlotte was mindful of her words in the presence of a child. So, she turned away and refused to look at them.
Who knew Elaine maintained her act as a gentle and virtuous wife. She hurriedly said to Charlotte, “Lottie, we heard you were sick. Your dad and I came all the way here to see you.” Then, she turned to Alistair and continued softly,
“Alistair, this is your sister. Be polite to her. ”
Alistair was very obedient. He greeted her obediently, “Sister.”
His child-like voice softened Charlotte’s heart.
Sure enough, she couldn’t harden her heart when it comes to a child around Sheryl’s age.
Charlotte turned around and asked coldly, “What’s the matter? Just say it.”
She didn’t believe that Elaine would visit her out of her own kindness. She was a wicked woman who was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Timothy was slightly unhappy with Charlotte’s attitude. However, under Elaine’s gaze, he put down his pride and spoke to her.
“Now that you are back, why don’t you move back home?”
The corner of Charlotte’s mouth turned into a scornful sneer upon hearing the word “home.” “Do I even have a home?”
“You!” Timothy lost his temper at her words. Elaine quickly tugged at the hem of his clothes and urged him to say no more.
Then, Elaine turned to Charlotte with a smile and said, “Of course you have a home! Our doors are always opened for you. Besides, it’s very inconvenient for you to raise a child outside. It’s better to be at home.”
Charlotte frowned and looked at Elaine. She noticed she was actually sincere and there wasn’t a trace of deception in her eyes.
Charlotte was genuinely surprised. Did something happen to Elaine today? The Elaine she knew was eager to have her leave the Emerson family.
Could it be that she was up to something else this time?
“I will go back under one condition. If only she leaves.” After being silent for a moment, Charlotte stated her request.
Timothy’s eyes widened at her words. Before he could say anything, Elaine spoke up.
“Okay, I’ll leave. As long as you and your daughter can reunite, I’m willing to do anything.”
Elaine’s eyes brimmed with tears. She picked up Alistair as she spoke and quickly left the ward.
